We’re Still Celebrating…
… even during scary times. There are still birthdays and graduations and friendships in need of highlighting. We need to celebrate even in the era of a global pandemic. We value our health and we value our customers, so when we were able to safely photograph this momentous occasion, we grabbed the opportunity.
Big R Orchards, a popular wedding and event venue in Moravian Falls, NC was the spot and everyone who came that day had such great energy. This happens when you get people who love each other together and when folks have been pinned up for months.
Most proms were cancelled this year, but dresses were purchased and friends wanted to get dressed up and made up and see one another.
I mean, seriously, are those above not the most dapper and darling individuals you’ve seen lately? They can still look back on this crazy year and have a glamorous memento or two.
We also celebrated birthdays and family time with members all dolled up and happy to be outdoors and with each other.
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs newborns and families, special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

Time for Prom Photos!
The more spring I can smell in the air, the more my mind goes to spring events and the season that brings us Easter, flowering trees, voracious house cleaning, veggie planting and, of course, PROM.
Students at Wilkes County schools are buying their gowns, renting their tuxes, making dinner and limo reservations, so the planning is already well underway. You WILL need photos and Pixels on Paper has nearly two decades of prom portraiture experience. We’re ready if you are.
Our outdoor portrait garden is a perfect place to take prom photos of you ladies in your gowns, with your dates or best friends, or to get images perfect for social media of your entire high school clan. When possible, we can also shoot images in our favorite orchard or on location if you have something special in mind.
As you make the other plans for your prom weekend, call us to book your photo session. If you have a stylized shoot or theme in mind, we’re in! Invite your pals and let us capture a milestone event that only happens a couple of times in your life!

Priscilla and Bo’s prom portraits
Sharing is caring.
In this case, Priscilla and Bo are sharing their prom experience and going with each other to their prospective special nights. Pretty sweet, huh? This means two dresses, two tuxes, two dinners and two big parties for this pair. Not a bad deal at all, now that I’ve typed it out and reread it. Why did no one call me and Ryan to, …..I dunno…. chaperone or choose the best dessert at dinner?
Priscilla is a graduating senior at North Wilkes High School and Bo is a Super Senior at Wilkes Early College. Priscilla’s Mom had the forethought to contact me prior to these prom dates in order to work out the best dates to capture photos.
Lucky for them, Bo’s prom night was first date on the calendar and during peak bloom period in the peach orchards. The plan was born from that. The couple looked stunning surrounded by blooms.
Despite how many times in my life that I’ve heard that red heads don’t look good in pink, I beg to differ. Priscilla is proof that gingers shine. Gingers in that we’ve photographed in the orchard are among the most beautiful portraits.
We’ve got loads of orchard photos to share in the coming weeks, so consider this the first taste!
